The spiders best friend is Nina
Miscellaneous

Spiderweb repaired with red sewing thread.You have probably never heard the expression "The spiders best friend is women." That's because I just made it up. And also because women prefer all spiders crushed under big flat heavy rocks the size of cars. Even though women for some biological or evolutionary reason will not under any circumstances do the crushing themselves. That is what men are for. Luckily nature has instead of giving women the ability to kill spiders themselves, given them something far more useful, The "look". Women can make men do pretty much anything by stomping their foot, pointing and giving the man in her life "the look". We are powerless against it.

A more correct statement: "A spiders best friend could be Nina Katchadourian". She is a exception to the rule and do not want all spiders killed this instant. She is a very funny, and very creative artist, living in Californa. She helps spiders out by repairing their nets while the spiders sleep which is hilarious. It's all part of her series of artprojects called, Univited collaborations with nature – The mended spiderweb series. It's about people (specifically her), helping nature (animals, spiders, insects, fish and other wildlife) to do stuff, even though nature in general really hasn't asked for any help. That's the funny. There are some pretty surprised animals, insects and spiders around where Nina is.

You have to visit her site about this particular project to find out how the spider react when they find that someone has repaired their nets while they slept. And do not miss the last image in the series, I absolutely love that one!

While you are there, check out the rest of her very interesting website featuring her different projects. There are more under Uninvited collaborations with nature, and also a lot of other projects. I liked the one about cars parking according to their color just to name one of many. The sheer creativity displayed in her work will blow you away. Thank you Nina for creating stuff!

Espresso House LogoI spend an awful lot of time in coffeshops, especially Espresso House. In the summers they make a delicious frappino made of ice cold vanilla milk, espresso and chocolate sauce. This drink has magical properties besides tasting great. It also makes it possible for you to concentrate like crazy, understand really long and complex calculations stretching over four pages, lose weight by sheer willpower in minutes, read chinese, appear irresistible to men and women, hear other peoples thoughts and divide by zero. Just like Chuck Norris. Well if you drink enough of them, about 12 in a day should do it.

For some strange reason there is no map on their list over Espresso House coffe shops in Sweden, so I, having about 10.000 better things to do, made a map over those Espresso House coffe shops that are in Stockholm. Thats one way to spend Valtines day i suppose...

I might have gotten some info in the map wrong, but I also filled in some missing info. Bear in mind that this map is in no way endorsed by Espresso House. Almost all the info comes from their page.

Ikea ad christmas tree 1999What I love about this IKEA Ad (commercial) is two things:

1. The girl - the way she looks up at her boyfriend in a really understanding way, is very good. Somuch is said without saying anything, just a look.

2. The guy - he works hard to fix stuff and in the end he succedes and makes his girl happy. For a another guy, this accomplished mission is heart-warming and inspiring.

The strange and wonderful humor of complete strangers

Laughing Monks made of clayA lot of people look at the world and get really depressed, not me! It's really simple – You have to choose to ignore everything that could potentionally make you upset or sad, and only see the good deeds and the crazy wonderful and amazing zaniness of complete strangers. 

Who regardless of their own misery come together to worship at the temple of useless crap and consumerism (Amazon) and set aside some of there valuable worship time to write hilarious reviews of stupid products, just to make complete strangers who they will never know laugh their asses off. If this is not an example of "The kindness of strangers", I don't know what is.

God bless them! :)
